same cons you run into at any large hierarchical company headquarters are 800 miles away so some things take way too long to get done

Pros

Friendly, happy and helpful staff. Lots of committees/programs supporting personal and community growth. Multiple proprietary technologies/applications to peek the interests of all technical backgrounds.

Cons

High percentage of contractors/vendors; advancement appears to be easier for permanent staff than tenured contractors with 3+ years of service; percentage of advancement from contractor to direct-hire very low.

Pros

Currently the benefits are excellent and the pay is above average. Start with a prorated two weeks of vacation and unlimited (within reason) sick time plus 3 personal days.

Cons

Due to the recent corporate consolidation, any Cincinnati job deemed corporate is being transitioned to Charlotte, NC. This includes most of legal, IT, human resources, and accounting and finance.
